ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On February 20, 2013, First Financial Bankshares, Inc. (“FFIN”), the parent company of First Financial Bank, N.A., Abilene, Texas (“FFB”), and OSB Financial Services, Inc. (“OSB”), the parent company of Orange Savings Bank, SSB, Orange, Texas (“Orange Savings”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which Orange Savings will merge with and into FFB (the “Merger”), with FFB surviving the Merger.

Pursuant to the Agreement, OSB as the sole shareholder of Orange Savings will receive 420,000 shares of FFIN common stock and cash of $39,200,000, subject to certain conditions and potential adjustment as described in the Agreement.

The Merger Agreement contains (a) customary representations and warranties of the parties, including, among others, with respect to corporate organization, capitalization, corporate authority, third party and governmental consents and approvals, financial statements, and compliance with applicable laws, (b) customary covenants of the parties, including among others, to conduct their respective businesses in the ordinary course until the Merger is completed; and (c) customary covenants of the parties not to take certain actions during such period. The Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals and approval of the shareholders of OSB. The transaction is expected to close during the second quarter of 2013, although delays could occur.

The foregoing summary of the Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of such document, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Important Additional Information About the Merger

In connection with the Merger, FFIN will file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4. The registration statement will include a prospectus for the offer and sale of FFIN common stock to OSB, which will be combined with the proxy statement of OSB for the solicitation of proxies from OSB’s shareholders for use at the meeting at which the Agreement and Merger will be voted upon. The prospectus/proxy statement and other documents filed by FFIN with the SEC will contain important information about FFIN, OSB and the Merger. SHAREHOLDERS OF OSB ARE URGED TO READ THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND THE PROSPECTUS/PROXY STATEMENT REGARDING THE MERGER WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC, AS WELL AS ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS TO THOSE DOCUMENTS, BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
